"Our stay at Miller House by the Bay was truly delightful. The moment we stepped inside the 1800s heritage home, we were struck by its character and warmth. It’s the kind of place where history feels alive, yet every corner is inviting and comfortable. Margaret is a remarkable host. She welcomed us with such kindness and genuine care that it instantly felt like we were visiting an old friend rather than checking into accommodations. Her thoughtful touches throughout our stay made all the difference. I truly enjoyed our informal chats as Margaret is a wealth of information. Evenings were especially fun as we unwound with a marble game—a simple, fun tradition that added a surprisingly charming element to our visit. We left feeling relaxed, cared for, and already talking about when we might return. A wonderful spot for anyone looking for a stay with heart and personality."
